Becoming a Radio Host was sure not something I had planned for. It happened as a result of being a guest on a radio show while I was promoting my personal story of overcoming Crohns disease, a life and death pregnancy, abuse, being given 30 minutes to live, having a near death experience, going through divorce and soaring above it all and creating the life I desire. I will admit, at first I was very nervous about hosting a show. What kind of guests and topics would I cover, how would I organize a script, learn the technology behind hosting a show, and then once I did all that, how and where would I promote the show, went through my mind. Once I became clear on my reason for hosting a show then things just started to flow. I wanted to help millions of people around the world cope, heal, and move through challenges similar to what I had once faced in my own life. I wanted to get the listeners inspired!

Many unexpected benefits have happened because of hosting my own show. I have met many talented and gifted people who are truly making a positive difference for millions around the world. I have worked on other projects with many of my guests. Some of my guests have featured me in their books. The next book coming out with my story is Chicken Soup for the Soul! I have been invited to join many conferences and speak for many telesummits. I have been invited on different TV shows, been invited into schools and had articles published in countless magazines in Canada, USA, and England. I have experienced personal spiritual growth and developed wonderful new friendships as a result of interviewing guests. Not only have I experienced personal benefits but also watched my business grow as a result of my own radio show. Having my own radio show allows me to promote myself as an author of 3 books and counting, promote my spiritual life coaching programs, my radio host training programs, my Reiki training classes, and brought me many more opportunities for speaking events as a motivational speaker. You could say my show is a great business card that is reaching millions of people around the world. Each week on my show during my final segment I share a life lesson, a tool or technique that can help my listeners. The positive feedback that comes from these shared messages is very rewarding.

If you want to have more exposure for your product, service, or business consider hosting your own radio show. Become a media expert in your field! Be your own star and help others through the work you do! Radio hosting is one of the best medias to get attention for yourself and your business. With being a radio host I have found it easier to get booked onto other shows.

As I look back over the years since I started hosting my show I have become a more confident person and really have had a lot of fun with my guests, my listeners and my producer. Each of my guests enjoy the experience of our interview and ask to be invited back real soon. I have watched my listener numbers grow as people share they feel they can connect with me as I share my personal stories of my husband snoring or our latest puppies’ adventures. I’m proud of myself for stepping out of my comfort zone and becoming a radio host. It’s very rewarding knowing that I am making a positive difference for millions around the world through my show. My show, Get Inspired Radio ™, is now syndicated and heard on many networks. I have been receiving offers to host my own TV show! I have received 2 offers from producers who want to make my life story book, “Soar Above It All- Overcoming Adversities”, into a documentary. And that is just a small piece of what’s coming up next for me!

And now, and I must add, I sure didn’t see this one coming, I am the President and CEO of Get Inspired Network™. A new On Demand Media Network where Radio and TV hosts can promote their encore shows, products, services, events, and sponsors and so much more.

If you want to enjoy the similar benefits of hosting your own radio show I am here to help you with that! In 4 – one on one sessions conducted over Skype or through the phone I will teach you How To Launch and Monetize A Successful Radio Show In 30 Days ™. With this training you will have everything in place to create a successful show.

Betty Jo Tucker is host of Movie Addict Headquarters and serves as editor/lead film critic for ReelTalk Movie Reviews. She also writes film commentary for the Colorado Senior Beacon and is the award-winning author of Confessions of a Movie Addict and Susan Sarandon: A True Maverick. Using the pen names of Harry and Elizabeth Lawrence, Betty Jo and her husband co-wrote It Had To Be Us, an award-winning romantic memoir available as a Kindle E-book from Amazon.com, which is now in the first stages of film adaptation. For more information, please visit her personal website at this link: http://www.BettyJoTucker.com.

As host of Movie Addict Headquarters, one of the featured shows on BlogTalkRadio, I’ve had the good fortune to interview many fascinating guests. That’s why it’s practically impossible to pick the most interesting ones. But Cloris Leachman was definitely one of the most memorable. What a comedy ambush! I could hardly get through the interview because I was laughing so much – unprofessional, I know, but I couldn't help it! Debbie Reynolds and Barry Bostwick have been the most candid – Debbie about her bad luck with men and Barry about his Rocky Horror Picture Show experiences.

And Tony Curtis was the most controversial with his sexy comments about Marilyn Monroe. His interview with Movie Addict Headquarters may have been the last one he gave before passing on. Tony was having some hearing problems and misunderstood my name. So he said, Betty Culpepper, what a name! Have I got the movie for you: Montana Falls starring Betty Culpepper! To this day, some people still call me by that name.

Perhaps the most surprising interview I conducted was with Oscar-winner Rita Moreno, who shared revealing information about her acting career ( such as “Jerome Robbins almost killed me in rehearsals for West Side Story!”) during our episode celebrating the Singin’ in the Rain 60th Anniversary. Turner Classic Movies host Robert Osborne was also a guest on that show, and these two show biz icons had never met before, so I gave them free rein -- and they made the most of their time together! That episode ended up being one of our most popular shows.

I think every guest is “the most interesting” while I’m talking with them. And each week I can hardly wait for the opportunity to learn more about the fascinating film folks who agree to be a guest on Movie Addict Headquarters, which airs each Tuesday at 4 p.m. Eastern Time on BlogTalkRadio.

Why you Should have a Radio Show.

By Joyce Knudsen

Many people ask why I have a radio show. They typically are concerned about not making money and just giving their time away. They couldn’t be more wrong. Over the past 30 years, my business is based on a relational theory; that once you form a relationship with another, they will want what you have. In my case, courses. They want to learn from you. Just knowing I’m providing valuable information through my guests (http://www.imagemakerincmedia.com) and these can be heard anytime, anywhere, throughout the entire world, gives me so much credibility and reputation that one simply cannot “pay” for.

If you want to have your own radio show, you can opt for BlogTalk Radio. Or, you can get a number with http://www.freeconference.com for a small monthly fee. My findings are that without the show, I would not be selling as many books as I do and would not be getting the new clients I am getting. It’s all connected!

In Today’s World, we have to have an “online reputation.” It’s important that we do many things for ‘no cost’ because our relationships are what people are seeking on the social sites. Radio is another venue.

Having my own radio show has introduced me to Mark Chesnutt, JoDee Mecina, Dr. Tony Alessandra, Michael E. Gerber and Ivan Misner, to name a few. They, in turn, have contacted me, followed me on social sites and have suggested guests for my show. Having this show has opened up doors for me to interview Hollywood Celebrities and local talent.

As an author and radio host, I feel privileged to be able to sit on both sides of the microphone. Do I prefer one over the other? Possibly but both can be exhilarating experiences if they are done right.

The role of radio host is no different from being a host/hostess in one’s home. Both situations require us to be hospitable and make sure our guests have everything they need to be comfortable and relaxed. To ensure that there are no awkward silences or embarrassing moments for them, we are prepared to make conversation by filling in any gaps in conversation by asking them about their families, work, stories of our own, world news and of course if all else fails, ‘the weather’! Our job as a hostess is to make the guest feel at home and really glad that they came to visit with us. It is exactly the same thing when a Guest visits our Show. They are coming into our workspace so the Host rules apply. I say SHOULD as there is a growing trend emerging amongst some Radio Hosts, where the GUEST is not only asked to do all the work but also to pay for the privilege. Are you kidding me?
If you host a VANITY Show, then admit that’s what it is. If you have decided to pay someone a Crap load of money in order to host a show (when you can do it for practically free) then that is a decision you made. Your guests shouldn’t have to pay you for it. They are what MAKE your show. Without them, you are a one voice wonder, unless that is the actual premise of your show which is very cool!

I have to admit that I have turned down interviews because of the amount of work a host wants me to do just to be on their show. What do I mean exactly? Over and over again, I am asked to send a list of 10 questions, write my own intro, send a bio with the exact number of words they want, get advertising or pay them and basically hand them in interview in a basket on my time and my dime! All for a 10 minute interview with someone who hasn’t even been on air a year. HELLO!!! What is wrong with this picture?
Well, I suppose I should ask you what you consider a Radio Hosts job to be? In my lexicon they are a journalist and as such, should be finding, researching, and writing and deciding what goes into their show, what will make it interesting and investigate facts about their guest in order to delight them, acknowledge them and support them. Heck I even expect you to read their books! (Please don’t give me the bull crap you don’t have time). When you actually put this kind of work into your show, you will be amazed by your guest’s reactions. Their respect for you goes WAY UP. They promote the interview more and the quality of your show and your work begins to shine.

It’s important that you ask meaningful questions that result in interesting if not passionate dialogue between you, your guests and even more importantly- Your listeners! If you are fortunate enough to have a call in show, it’s still important to remember that not everyone listens in live, so your Job is to ask questions that a listener might want to ask themselves. How can you do that if ALL you know about your guest is the 10 questions you asked from them?

As a guest, I find being asked the SAME 10 questions about my book and work VERY boring. Believe me after the 10th interview I am sent too, I probably won’t even be sharing YOUR SHOW nor the interview with listeners or followers. Why you ask? Why should I? My audience has already heard the answers to these questions ad nauseam. They crave something new and different and so do I.

If you wish to be a better journalist (and that is what being a radio host is) then I suggest you stop taking the easy road and start putting some real effort into your shows. They will certainly get better from both a content and listenership viewpoint and so will your skills.

My guests really appreciated knowing that I had their backs during an interview and were always VERY pleasantly surprised that I could quote from their books.

We already discussed the role of a host is to make sure our guest is comfortable and supported. Remember for the most part, your guests/authors are not entertainers, but YOU ARE. If you had actually read the book or material that made you want these folks as guests, then you would be able to remind them of material or scenes from their books to prompt them when they get stuck.
Being a Radio Host is a really Fun Role to have and being a Guest on the Radio is really cool too, because it denotes that you have something important to say.

I've had - and continue to have wonderful experiences as a radio host, being a guest on internet radio, telesummits and being a blogger on my own site.

Internet radio is easy :)- and usually free unless you get a premium station that has perks.
As a host it’s simply having a conversation via telephone with a structure set with the guests Q & A via email in advance so it can be promoted via the internet. The guest's tone is also conversational, so if anyone has jitters about this get rid of them since everything can be detected in your voice. By the way, public speaking is the #1 fear in the world. You can't see your public via radio or phone, so there's no reason for jitters! If you do have them, however I can help you with coaching and alternative modality EFT which is highly effective for reversing phobias and fear.
